Services for Children
We offer a wide variety of books for children of all ages ranging from board books to beginner readers. We also have many toys and puzzles for children to use in the library or check out for 1 week at a time. We have added STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) toys, as well!
Look out for information about our summer and winter reading programs! Check out our calendar and stay connected with us on Facebook.
Storytime
We have Storytime on Tuesdays at 4 pm. Families with children of all ages are welcome at Storytime. Storytime is targeted at younger children. We read two books, sing songs or rhymes, and participate in a craft and/or activity. This is a great way for children to be engaged with their library and get to know other children.
Author Zooms in June
In June, join our library for a series of Zoom meetings with authors as part of the state's All Iowa Reads program. This is a unique opportunity for the state to read books and discuss altogether. Adults are welcome to attend any author Zoom meetings, regardless of the target audience of the books. Children would enjoy the Zoom meeting with Kate Messner on June 9. Contact the library for more information!
